Can these induction cooktops be used to put a canning pot on and generate the proper heat to do the job?

yes as long as you are using induction friendly pots-we canned with the Burton --same size heating surface.

I do not have an induction cook-top, but the pot is made of a thin sheet of stainless steel and the base is not that big. I suspect it will not work, but I'm not certain.

Sorry, I have never cooked on a induction stove top. But I do think it will be similar to the others. I needed pot holders only if I was cooking for a long time on high heat. I was actually surprised how cool the handles stayed during cooking.

Merri, I really don't about that ,I bought these pots and pans as a gift for my daughter,I know the price was right,the product is great, so far so good ,all the cooking my daughter has done so far is great,the pans are very good for the price,but I think I read somewhere that you can use these on an induction top,but the best thing to do is Call Farberware customer service ,they will give you the right information you need.

They can certainly be used on gas, electric, and glass cooking surfaces. I do not have an induction range, so I have no experience with that. I do know that the pot surface must be ferromagnetic. OR, an interface disk can be used for any regular pot on an induction range.

Hello, I do not think that this product is suitable for induction heat. What little that I can ascertain is what I found in Wikipedia regarding induction cooking. See below "Induction cooking" In induction cooking, an induction coil in the cook-top heats the iron base of cookware. Copper-bottomed pans, aluminium pans and other non-ferrous pans are generally unsuitable. The heat induced in the base is transferred to the food via (metal surface) conduction. Benefits of induction cookers include efficiency, safety (the induction cook-top is not heated itself) and speed. Both permanently installed and portable induction cookers are available. I can not see the aluminum bottom on the pans because it is encased in the dark enamel coloring, I would suggest asking the company that makes this product as wearever.com Hope this gives you the information that you need.

Yes and it works great. We have an induction stove top and have not had any issues with this pot. We actually have the whole set of this series in various sizes.

I think the manufacturer warns against heatinhg them up too hot. I don't use high heat with this pot on my induction stovetop. I also didn't use high heat on my ceramic electric cooktop.

In order for this pot to be use on an induction range you must have an interface disk to place the pot on. Cooking vessels must be made of ferromagnetic metal to be used on induction ranges, I do not know if this pot contains that metal. I have a gas range and this pot works beautifully....I am so sorry I did not purchase another one.

Yes, because induction stoves are specifically designed to heat stainless steel pots, etc.

Yes you can. I use mine all the time on my induction cooktop. You will hear a sizzling sound which is just the silicon oil between the layers of the bottom of the pot, but nothing to worry about. The pot really does work.

I have a glass cooktop--not induction--and I cannot use this canner on my glass cooktop. If you have a glasstop induction cooktop you cannot use this, or any other, canner. The weight of the water & filled canning jars is too much for a glass cooktop. We can on a two-burner propane burner out on the deck. The great thing about canning out there is that we're not canning in an already hot kitchen.

I am not sure of this info, but I can tell you that we had to have a pot that would heat on our stove - Induction Heat - and it works wonderfully.

Nope. Induction stoves require a resistive coil in the base to transfer energy from the stove top to the pot or pan. This is a simple stainless steel kettle and is unlikely to heat up much on an induction stovetop.

I do not have an induction cook top. This was a gift for our son in law. He has a gas stove top and absolutely Loves the pot.

I do not have an induction cook top, but I have seen this pot in a hotel kitchen that had an induction cook top. So my guess is that they are compatible.

Yes these pots and pans work on induction cooktops. They clean up nicely and they look great. Good value for the price.
